  • Private bathrooms include complimentary toiletries and bathrobes; housekeeping available on request.

Border House suits travelers wanting a small, simple lakeside room with boutique scale rather than many room choices.

Dining & drinks: many venues vs a single on-site choice

Peppermill Resort Spa Casino – Dining & drinks

Peppermill has an extensive dining and bar lineup that covers casual to fine dining.

  • 10 restaurants (Romanza, Bimini Steakhouse, CHI, Oceano, Biscotti’s, Cafe Milano, Sabroso, Sports Deli, Cafe Espresso and more).
  • Around 16 themed bars and lounges including Fireside Lounge, Terrace Lounge and EDGE nightclub.
  • Options range from 24-hour cafe service to reservation-required fine dining.

Pick Peppermill if variety and late-night dining or nightlife matter to you.

  • Supplier listing shows 1 restaurant and 2 bars/lounge areas on site.
  • Guests can also use dining options at Crystal Bay Casino nearby.

Peppermill focuses on two outdoor geothermally heated pools plus poolside amenities.

  • Upper Deck and Lower Deck outdoor pools; lifeguards on duty and cabanas available for rent.
  • Pool access limited to hotel guests; season and hours vary (summer/winter schedules published).

Border House’s supplier listing does not publish on-site pool details; its main draw is proximity to the lake.

  • Listing highlights immediate access to Crystal Bay and nearby beaches such as Agate Bay.
  • Casino and bars provide onsite activity; lakeside beaches and water sports are within short drives.

Border House works if lakeside access and the casino connection matter more than hotel pool facilities.
